How Rittal and EPLAN Achieve Your Automation Goals
Not so long ago, when you wanted to take a road trip, you had to break out a map and plot your route manually. You could not account for the wealth of variables that could seriously disrupt or even derail your journey. There was no way to anticipate road construction, accidents resulting in long delays or detours, weather-related occurrences, or missed turns yielding delays in arrival.
Siemens Webinar: Drives and Main Circuit Dimensioning in One Tool
How can you integrate a drive configuration into the main circuit Today, the drives can be designed in the TIA Selection Tool according to the application. However, the embedding in a higher-level main current view was missing until now. The latest update now makes this possible. Plan your control cabinet’s electrical system from the top feed to the bottom drive. Other aspects such as controls and other consumers are integrated as usual. In this webinar, experts from Siemens will introduce you to the new functions.

Protect Your HVAC System from Damaging Fault Currents
As the demand for electric power continues to increase, so does available fault currents. When available fault currents at the HVAC equipment exceed the panel’s short circuit current ratings (SCCRs), there can be catastrophic results. Watch Littelfuse’s new video Learn How to Calculate and Increase the SCCR for an overview of the popular method using the UL 508A Supplement S-B.
